Answer

A

Explanation

Conduction is the process by which heat energy is directly transferred between molecules through molecular collisions or direct contact. This typically occurs in solids, where molecules are closely packed together and can easily collide with one another. The other two options describe convection and radiation, respectively. Convection is the transfer of heat by the movement of a fluid, such as air or water, while radiation is the transfer of energy by electromagnetic waves.
